| 30. Bad idea. AG should be perceived as non-politiical |

Republicans would never give it a rest that she is not really enforcing the law, but just politicizing it (claiming that she does exactly like they did). That's not to say she would, but that would be a huge distraction and it would make it more difficult to execute what needs to be done with legitimacy. Compare to how a pre-prostitution Eliot Spitzer would have been received - a pitbull on the side of justice. Not sure who would be the best person for AG out there now, but if Hillary is to be in the cabinet, at SoS, her intangibles would be positives (other countries would be a little dazzled by her star power) instead of negatives.
